TL;DR · Senior Staff Engineer, AI Enablement & Engineering Excellence

Join our team as a Sr. Staff Engineer in AI Enablement & Engineering Excellence at GEICO, where you will lead the integration of AI into software development processes across a large engineering organization. Your role involves defining and implementing an end-to-end strategy for AI adoption, including evaluating tools, designing integration patterns, and establishing metrics to measure impact on developer productivity and code quality. You will work closely with engineers to embed AI in the SDLC through initiatives like AI pair programming and automated test generation while ensuring responsible use and alignment with organizational policies. Additionally, you will provide technical guidance for integrating LLMs into production systems, define engineering standards for AI-integrated development, and drive architectural consistency across teams to prevent new forms of technical debt. This role requires extensive experience in AI/ML tooling, hands-on work with AI developer tools, and a deep understanding of LLM fundamentals, along with strong communication skills to influence senior leadership effectively.

What you'll do

  • Own the organization-wide strategy for AI in the software development lifecycle.
  • Pilot and operationalize AI tooling across the SDLC to enhance developer productivity and code quality.
  • Define adoption frameworks that ensure responsible use of AI, balancing productivity with security and cost.
  • Establish metrics to measure AI's impact on engineering velocity, quality, and developer experience.
  • Provide architectural guidance for integrating LLMs and ML models into production software systems.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of software engineering experience with at least 3 years in AI/ML tooling and LLM integration.
  • Deep hands-on experience with production-level AI developer tools like GitHub Copilot and LLM-powered code review systems.
  • Strong understanding of LLM fundamentals including prompt engineering, context management, and evaluation of AI tools in development workflows.
  • Proven track record of designing and deploying large-scale AI-integrated systems, considering cost, latency, and quality tradeoffs.
  • Demonstrated ability to drive technical adoption across large engineering teams without direct authority.
  • Excellent communication skills for explaining AI technical concepts to both engineers and senior leadership.
